quote:
"Morris' claim that the "human-like" depressions are "fairly consistent in length" is unfounded, since...
...The same depressions have been interpreted in vastly different ways by different creationist authors — some claiming they were "giant human prints" from 16 to 19 inches long, and others, such as Morris and Stan Taylor, indicating that the "best" prints in the trail represented normal sized feet about 10 inches long. Baugh and Patton recently attempted to show that the "new" human prints (in the same dinosaur tracks) are each 11.5 inches long. This they did by partially filling each track with muddy water until a puddle about 11.5 inches long was achieved!"

Wouldn't it be much more valid for the people at Talk Origins to go to the Paluxy River and measure the inconsistencies of the tracks rather than claim that the creationists have not agreed on the size?
